[QUOTE="len0475, post: 1157223, member: 78709"] The new MacBook Air's uses a rebranded Toshiba controller. Although it's speed is mediocre, it could still be used. I was under the assumption that you can use any SSD with any controller provided it [b]A. Plugs-In[/b] and [b]B. Physically Fits[/b] inside the MacBook. The different controllers just dictates the performance. The SandForce controllers are one of the newer controllers trailing behind the Marvell in performance. It will out-perform most of the Intel, Indilinx, JMicron, Samsung, or Toshiba controllers. [/QUOTE]
